Our Treatment Philosophy

Psychotherapy can be a powerful and transformative experience. A large body of research has shown the effectiveness of therapy in alleviating symptoms and improving quality of life.

We believe that psychological healing begins with the relationship between patient and therapist. Together we will seek to explore and understand your life experiences, thoughts, and emotions in order to ameliorate symptoms and improve relationships with others.

Our Therapeutic Orientation

Most of us at TEMENOS would describe our orientation to doing therapy as psychodynamic relational, although we use many techniques from a variety of schools of thought, including cognitive-behavioral, gestalt and EMDR techniques, depending on an individual’s needs. In addition to our academic qualifications, all of us are deeply committed to life-long learning and have considerable post-graduate training in various techniques and perspectives.
